1Opinion of the Court

Opinion by JUDGE TERRY

¶ 1 After a real estate development project failed, plaintiff, David Daniel Byerly (Contractor), the development's project manager, filed a mechanic's lien for $824,000, and later amended the lien to $641,000. The trial court, relying on section 38-22-101(3), C.R.S.2012, ruled that Contractor had a valid lien for $417,095, an amount commensurate with what it found to be the value of his services, and found that the lien was not excessive and therefore not invalid under section 38-22-128, C.R.S.2012.
